Abstract: The Expert Panel for Cosmetic Ingredient Safety (Panel) assessed the safety of 7 radish root-derived ingredients, most of which are reported to function as hair and skin conditioning agents in cosmetic products. Because final product formulations may contain multiple botanicals, each containing similar constituents of concern, formulators are advised to be aware of these constituents and to avoid reaching levels that may be hazardous to consumers. With radish root-derived ingredients, the Panel was concerned about the presence of anthocyanins and isothiocyanates in cosmetics. Industry should use current good manufacturing practices to minimize impurities that could be present in botanical ingredients. The Panel reviewed the available data and concluded that these ingredients are safe in cosmetics in the present practices of use and concentration described in this safety assessment when formulated to be non-sensitizing.
